Gas generators remain popular despite shortages

KARACHI: As with any economy, supply and demand for gas generators are in perfect synchronicity. Caliber as the other changes. But curiously, this mechanism does not take into account a severe shortage of fuel that works great these machines: the gas.

In Sindh, the gas supply is cut back to two days per week and in the Punjab, it is three days a week. The situation is so precarious that the government has to advertise in the media urging people not to use generators that require fuel. This is not working though.A senior official of Sui Southern Gas Company has complained that the company can not take action against anyone who buys a gas generator or trades in the product. Neither the oil and gas regulatory authority, nor the oil ministry has prepared legislation to govern the use of gas generators. "So even if someone is using or selling a gas generator, it can not register an FIR at the police station," said the official.

In their place were the ultra-luxury cars: Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, Land Rover and Porsche. Safety Ed called it the "level of slime." In other words, the cars few people could hope to own. Especially now.

10 years ago, initial public offering (IPO) has been a frequent phenomenon in Seattle, making millionaires overnight.As you may know, last year, the federal government became the majority owner of General Motors and Chrysler, amid the gnashing of teeth and rending of garments and tea Partiers Fox "News" Channel. This action has saved about a million jobs. GM IPO is imminent, and financial types say the government, ie, we the people stand to gain a handsome profit, in addition to maintaining a national car industry. And an estimated one million jobs.
